Did you get any particular ones? Looks like there are two depths, I assume you got the shorter ones?
no I got the silver ones but I still wanted the darker nut covers, as not to draw attention to them too much

uczmeg, just a quick post to show you how the car looks now, rubbish photos but you get the idea!

Why buy look a like Horseshoes when you can have the real thing!?

I am loving the new look, totally changes the look and feel of the car. Cheers!

Alfa Romeo

what do you guys think about the OZ superleggera's / ultraleggera's for my 159SW?

they are quite light right ?
lighter rims will give better fuel consumption, yes ?

however I vaguely remember reading before in another forum abt some issues with certain rims being too soft for the weight of the 159 tho...
any issues you think ?

thanks

Excellent, much better!

And I'm loving that blue tint paint job you got done in less than a day!

ultraleggera's on my Brera are fine, even with the glass roof and 3.2 V6 lump under the hood (so fairly heavy)

18" horseshoes swap?

I have 18" horseshoe alloys on red 159 JTdM
Might be interested in swapping for 17" alfa alloys but not the common 20 spokes
Preferably original alfas
Only bad points is that tyres are done no surprise there but also I am in northern ireland
will take some pictures tomorrow and let you see them
